Today Shoaib Akhter Pakistan Fast Bowler now
have to Decide that he will retire from the all types of
International cricket.
Privately, over the last few months, Shoaib had been
looking at the World Cup as a final hurrah for a body
increasingly unable to cope with the rigours of the international
game. The tournament itself has been a mixed one for
him: he was outstanding through ten overs in Pakistan's
win over Sri Lanka. But after an impressive opening spell
against New Zealand he was taken for 28 runs in his final
over, bowling a succession of waist high full tosses at
Ross Taylor as New Zealand changed the game.

He was dropped for the subsequent Zimbabwe game
- having earlier been rested in the game against Canada
- and it was as much for his performance as continuing
concerns over his ability to be at optimum operation in
his second and third spells.
